The countryside that taught the rest of the world what countryside should look like, with cypress spines, vine rows, and stone that has watched a thousand harvests. You don't decorate a Tuscan wedding so much as borrow a view and set a long table in front of it.
Italy recognises civil unions, not same-sex marriage, so a same-sex wedding in Tuscany is a symbolic ceremony, and couples make the legal marriage at home or in a marriage-equality country (nearby Spain or Portugal are common). Opposite-sex couples can hold a legally binding civil marriage here. Either way, the celebration is yours; only the paperwork has a postcode.
It is less an event than a slow weekend. Couples take a villa or a whole stone hamlet for several days, and the wedding becomes the centre of a longer gathering, with welcome dinners under fig trees, lazy mornings by a pool, a ceremony as the light goes gold, and then a feast that runs until the candles do. The land does the heavy lifting, so the design budget goes further than it would almost anywhere else.

A destination wedding is really a small group trip, and someone has to think about how eighty people get there, get around, and stay connected. These are the pieces couples usually sort for their guests, so the day itself is the only thing anyone has to remember.
